The history of the struggle of the God of the Stove

Chapter 41
After the white bone beads landed, the aura did not appear, as if they were polished out of ordinary white bones.

If it wasn't for the fact that everyone had just seen the power of the bone god and demon, I'm afraid they really wouldn't regard this string of bone beads as some kind of treasure.

Empress Shiji frowned slightly, looked at the string of white bone beads, and in the end, she stretched out her hand and put the string of beads away.

She is a disciple of Jiejiao, an orthodox sect of Taoism, even though the bone gods and demons look powerful, she doesn't take her seriously.

After all, it is a heretic thing. Ma Yuan has the bad habit of eating people's hearts because of the sacrifice of the 12 Yuanchen bone gods and demons. However, all orthodox Taoist monks mostly stay away from such evil things, and rarely get contaminated.

The Skull Mountain is an ancient battlefield, where countless corpses are buried. As time goes on, some ghosts and monsters will inevitably be born to harm people.

Although Shi Ji turned the stubborn stone into a spirit and transformed into the Skull Mountain, she was kind-hearted. After she became successful in Taoism, she saw that the people near the Skull Mountain were persecuted repeatedly. , Only then spread the good name near the Skull Mountain.

Today, Ma Yuan's execution can be regarded as another harm for the nearby people. In the future, business travelers will no longer have to take long detours to Chentangguan.

Shi Ji let out a long breath, she was about to go to the Heavenly Court after the matter was over.

"Let's go."

Qingluan landed in front of Qi Yuan and the others, and Shi Ji called them up.

"Wait a moment."

Seeing that everyone was about to board Qingluan and leave this place, Qi Yuan rolled his eyes and quickly stopped everyone.

After all, Ma Yuan is also a person who has cultivated to become a fairy. His cave has been in operation for many years, and there must be some good things. Among other things, these immortals who have attained Taoism and longevity, wouldn’t they plant some strange things in the cave? Flowers and fruits, besides practicing, can you not collect some rare materials?

Wouldn't it be too wasteful to just leave like this?
"Why, what else is there, sir?"

The crowd didn't have so many twists and turns, and looked at him with some puzzlement.

"Uh……"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Qi Yuan was a little embarrassed.

But his old face is not only wrinkled, but also thick-skinned, even if he blushes a little, others can't see it.

Seeing that Qi Yuan showed a righteous expression, he said righteously: "Mother, Ma Yuan is a cruel and violent man, maybe there are some harmful techniques or vicious magic weapons left in his cave. Maybe, in order to prevent people with evil intentions from being used to harm others, I think the empress should search carefully, so as not to miss anything and cause endless disasters."

When everyone heard this, they secretly praised this old man for being so worried about the safety of others, and he really deserved the name of a sage.

Shi Ji nodded, and said: "What Mr. said is, it's better not to spread such harmful things."

Li Jing also praised: "Old Qi is still thoughtful."

Qi Yuan looked at him, and suddenly said: "Mrs. Yin must still be worried about the general and his son at the mansion. After returning, the general will definitely spend a few days with your wife. Don't get sick because of these few days of fear." Come?"

After being reminded so "kindly" by Qi Yuan, Li Jing remembered that his wife was still looking forward to their return early.

Thinking of this, Li Jing didn't want to stay any longer, he just wanted to go back to the house as soon as possible to comfort his wife's frightened heart.

So he immediately forgot about Ma Yuan's cave, and said directly to Shiji: "Your Majesty, thanks to your kindness, I will not pursue the crimes committed by Nezha. Li Jing is very grateful. I bid farewell to my mother."

"It's okay, then you can go back."

Shiji nodded indifferently.

She also doesn't want to see Li Jing and his son, especially Nezha. To prevent accidents, it's better to send them away as soon as possible.

Li Jing looked at Qi Yuan and asked, "Mr. Qi will go back to Chentang Pass with me, or..."

Qi Yuan frowned and sighed: "I'm so tired after traveling all the way today, so I won't go back with the general for now. It won't be too late to go back after I have a rest and refreshed myself."

"This……"

Li Jing looked at Shi Ji with some embarrassment, if Qi Yuan doesn't go back with him now, then he can only entrust Qi Yuan to Empress Shi Ji to take care of him, otherwise he can live in the barren mountains?
Shi Ji nodded knowingly: "Don't worry, I will arrange a place for you."

Li Jing felt relieved after hearing this.

Qi Yuan said with a shameful face: "It's all because of my father and son that Elder Qi suffered such a crime. When Elder Qi comes back, we will allow Li Jing to come to thank you."

"Hey, based on our friendship, why do you need to say such things?"

Qi Yuan waved his hand with a serious face: "Okay, go back quickly, don't keep your wife waiting for a long time."

Li Jing nodded, and after saluting, he fled away on the ground.

Compared with Li Jing, Nezha was more guilty when facing Shiji, so he was even more unwilling to hang around in front of Shiji. Seeing that he could leave, he hurriedly used his escape method and slipped faster than his father .

Qi Yuan watched the two leave, and then quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally sent them away, now if he finds something good in Ma Yuandong Mansion, no one will snatch it from him, right?
Through the analysis of Shi Ji's character, he felt that Shi Ji has a degree of behavior, and he is definitely not a person who does not repay his kindness.

Therefore, although there was no mention of any reciprocal words before, but this time the kindness has been forged, it is impossible for Shiji not to express anything.

At this time Ma Yuan was dead, and it was time to harvest, so he didn't want to be accompanied by two guys like Li Jing and Nezha.

In case of any benefits, if you don't share some of them with them, wouldn't it appear that you are too greedy, and it doesn't match the image you have managed so hard to manage, at least before you become a god, his personality can't be broken.

Therefore, this is a small plan to let Li Jing and his son leave voluntarily.

In fact, he wasn't too greedy, as long as he found some elixir that could improve his cultivation in Ma Yuandong Mansion, he was just worried that there would be too many people to share the elixir, so he thought of a way to send Li Jing and his son away in advance.

Following Shi Ji to Ma Yuan's cave, Ma Yuan didn't expect to be killed because of Shi Ji's sudden arrival, so most of the formation restrictions in his cave were not activated, which saved a lot of effort.

Although Ma Yuan has practiced here for hundreds of years, he has to say that his cave is really simple, just a few stone chambers in the middle of the mountain. Presumably it is because of his hard work, so there are not many extravagances .

Even in one corner, there are all kinds of skeleton remains, some of which are so pervasive that most people will definitely feel their scalps go numb if they see it.

However, Ma Yuan is also a person who has achieved immortality after all. After hundreds of years, he has accumulated some family fortune, so he will not let him go away empty-handed.

In Ma Yuan's cave, some elixirs were discovered one after another, but unfortunately, Empress Shiji said that most of them were not yet mature and could not be picked.

The only ones that are mature are only a few useless Nether Grass.

In view of Qi Yuan's lack of knowledge about elixir, Shi Ji popularized it for him.

This kind of nether grass can only grow in places with strong yin energy, and it is not very useful to people who practice the Tao.

This thing also has a function, squeeze out the juice of Nether Grass and drip it into the eyes, so that ordinary people can see ghosts.

But among all the successful Qi practitioners, which one has never opened their eyes?
Besides, ordinary ghosts and monsters mostly live in the underworld, and the ghosts who hang around in the world can't find enough ghost energy at all, and it is difficult to cultivate to a high level.

Therefore, few monks can cultivate this Nether Grass, which means that most of what Ma Yuanyi has learned is evil and weird, so it can be used.

Although Qi Yuan was disappointed, he felt that it was better than nothing. Since Shi Ji didn't notice it, he directly uprooted the Nether grass and put it in a small cloth bag.

Shi Ji probably also saw Qi Yuan's disappointment, and said with a smile: "I still have some spirit fruits in my cave, and I will give them to my husband later."

Qi Yuan was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly thanked Empress Shiji.
